Shoe store reviews

David's shoe store - Toronto

A true shoe conoisseur never misses a chance to walk through David's on Bloor Street.
Highlight: Their seasonal sales are a great time to stock up on fabulous buys. I scored a fabulous pair of Yves St. Laurent boots at one of their sales at half off the original $1000 ticket price.
Drawback: You can sometimes find the same shoes elsehwere for a better price. That being said, David's service and insight is unparelled.

There is no end to the things that people will study, including the effect of things sticking to the bottom of a shoe..................introducing the Stepolla (they even have a video).

This device was created for Mark Sippola, a scientist at LBL, who was studying particle deposition and resuspension - basically the way things get stuck and unstuck to the bottom of your shoes. So just remember the next time you step in gum, you aren't just steping in gum, you could be changing the world. In fact this one time, Shoelover stepped in..............

MONTREAL (Reuters) - On a recent night out on the town, Michel and Chantal Delbecchi left their suburban Montreal home and drove to the L'Orage Club in the city's east end, where they had sex with a couple they had never met before.

The Delbecchis, husband and wife since 1978, are "echangistes," French for "swingers," who for the past 21 years have been visiting clubs like L'Orage (Thunderstorm) to have consensual sex in a group with one or more other people.

For future outings, they will no longer have to fear police will raid the club and arrest them for being in a "bawdy house," a place where prostitution or acts of public indecency take place (continued...)

-Now just to dispel any notion that going to a swinger's club is like walking on to the set of the latest Jenna Jameson movie, lets have a little gander at the Delbecchis. That sure the hell ain't Nick and Jessica is it. Now let's take a look at some of the other patrons.

Just kidding folks, these are the judges that sit on the Supreme Court of Canada.

So why am I writing about this? Well, just so Americans know that, despite Canada's liberal leanings, it is not going to hell in a hand basket. Swinging clubs are not popping up on every corner and Canadians are not spending all of their waking hours fornicating with other people's spouses...........why? Because most swingers look like this couple :)

Over the weekend, Shoelover decided to peruse some nearby vintage clothing stores. You never know when you will stumble across a great find. One such store featured a pair of D&G sandals that looked brand-spanking-new. They were open-toed with three straps and super-high. Although the summer is waning, I kept staring at them thinking they would work for my winter holiday in Mexico. I decided to forgo the shoes -- partly because I couldn't wrap my head around the fact that they were previously loved and because they were orange, which is not my favorite color. Anyone out there ever buy used designer shoes? Thots? Until later, loves. Keep your toesies beautiful.
